In a dark room, you can hear drops falling and footsteps, the sound of footsteps getting louder and louder.
In the darkness, you can see a silhouette, a man in a suit wandering around a lonely place.
He was on a rooftop a little way from the auction house, the silhouette of the man slowly approaching the edge.
He takes a sniper rifle from his back and places it on the railing in front of him. He gets into position and looks through the sniper's scope.
A girl and a man are standing there together. He also sees the girl create something like a vacuum cleaner, but with a mouth that looks like something out of a cartoon.
This vacuum cleaner eats the lifeless bodies and sucks up all the blood, leaving no traces behind. The evidence vanishes, and the sniper fires.
The man hears the sound of a bullet and realizes, chink!... It can be heard in its place. The man cut the bullet, which was heading straight for the girl, but the man cut it just in time.
"This is going to be complicated, just when I'm far away," said the person, who turns out to be Seven.
Seven takes the cigarette out of his mouth, takes out a pack of cigarettes, opens it, takes out a new one, puts it in his mouth, lights it with a lighter, and Seven goes back to smoking a cigarette.
Seven looks through the sniper's scope again, but when he looks, he only sees the girl in the place, but not the man. The strange thing is that the girl is there as if nothing had happened, continuing what she was doing.
"I see. I guess the man went after me to find me and left her alone. She trusts that he'll come back. I see," Seven thought.
"So you were here. Surprising. Are you a coward, just because you don't want to face me head-on?" said a voice that sounded close by.
It was the man who climbed down from the roof where he had been hiding. He fell to the ground with a loud thud, and then got back up.
"Are you so afraid of facing someone up close that you shoot from a distance? Wow, I never thought that of a top," said the man.
"By the way, my name is Tatsuo Koyimara. Nice to meet you," said the man named Koyimara.
"I see. I didn't think you'd get here so fast, but anyway, how about we have a smoke first," said Seven, taking out the cigarette box.
Seven opened the pack, took one out, and passed it to Koyimara, who caught it with his hands, looking at the cigarette.
"There's nothing in a real cigarette, why did he pass it to me?" thought Koyimara.
"Hey, even if I accept this, I don't have anything to light it with," said Koyimara, showing the cigarette.
"Don't worry, I'll light it for you. Don't move, or you'll die," said Seven, taking a gun out of his pocket.
Seven aims the gun and fires. Bang... the sound of the trigger being pulled is heard, and the bullet grazes the front of the cigarette. The speed and heat of the bullet lit the cigarette.
"Wow, impressive. It's true that you have very good aim and that it's almost impossible for you to miss," said Koyimira, smoking the cigarette now lit by the bullet.
"But anyway, it's time to stop talking and start fighting," said Koyimira, taking brass knuckles out of his pockets.
Koyimira attacks fiercely, Seven dodges every blow Koyimira throws, and out of nowhere, the brass knuckles begin to glow intensely.
"Well, it's time," thought Koyimira, throwing a punch.
Seven dodges the punch, but it destroys the entire floor, causing a large hole.
"I see those gloves increase the power of each blow, glowing brightly to signify that the attack is charged," Seven thinks.
Narrator: To give you an idea, because not many people had the power to master blood fusion, the government established many rules to keep them in check.
"Because of this, crime increased, and with that, there were people who were able to create new things that could kill some of their targets. Because of that, there are many weapons.
"Due to the high rate of theft and murder, more weapons were created to kill, and some of them were created by some people, resulting in data to replicate the power of a kōki and make it strong.
"But those projects ended up failing, and today they are only used as scrap metal. However, some of those projects were revived in order to be able to surpass someone with blood fusion and not be forgotten," said the narrator, ending the explanation.
Seven just stared at Koyimira for a long time, then fell to the ground, sitting up, raising his arm, and placing his closed hand on his chin.
Koyimira watched him and prepared herself, getting into position, reloading her knuckle duster, and running towards Seven. Koyimira launched her charged attack.
Seven didn't move and appeared indifferent, sighing. Seven caught Koyimira's arm with which she had launched the charged attack, easily neutralizing her.
"What happened? A second ago, he had the advantage," thought Koyimara.
"Well, the truth is, this turned out to be easier than I thought it would be. I thought it would be a real challenge," thought Siete.
Narrator: "To Koyimara's confusion, there is an explanation for this. Sifon's ability to heighten his senses makes him difficult to face," said the narrator.
"But there's also something else: Sifon has a severe percentage limit on his ability, because when he uses it to a greater percentage, it makes everything appear in slow motion," said the narrator.
"As his trait of enhancing his senses to a great extent, he can see everything in slow motion for a few minutes, but only his senses, since they are faster than his body, so he only sees what will happen," said the narrator.
"But Sifon compensates for this with his sense of reaction and reflexes, as his reaction time increases at the same time as his senses, and thanks to this, his body moves quickly, but only in terms of reaction speed, not actual speed. Only in terms of reaction, his body is fast, taking care of his center of balance," said the narrator, ending the explanation.
Seven, sitting on top of Koyimira, checks all the ammunition he brought along with some weapons, inspects some parts, and realizes they are of good quality.
"Well, it looks like this isn't very good for you, is it?" said Seven.
"What the hell do you want?" said Koyimira.
"Not much, just some information that will be useful to me so I don't have to kill you," asked Seven, holding the lit cigarette to his face.
"I see you're the seventh mercenary. Safario has told me he won't fight the seventh," said Koyimira, enduring the pain of the burns.
"Safario who? Who is he?" asked Seven.
"Just a friend of mine, ha ha ha. That guy always does what he wants, but he doesn't like to get involved. He just watches," replied Koyimira.
"That guy must be someone with his own motives," said Seven.
"You know, when I saw you, I thought the seventh mercenary would be a woman," said Koyimira.
"And why did you think that? Are you misinformed, or do you know what's going on with the tops?" said Seven.
"Yes, exactly, I know that when one of the top dies, they obviously look for someone just as dangerous and who always thinks things through to replace them," said Koyimira.
"Whenever the top mercenaries die, they look for their replacement to be the new top," said Koyimira.
"Yes, exactly, but the only women in the group are Eight, Six, and Four. They are the only girls at the top," said Seven.
"The rest of us are men: me, Ten, Nine, Five, Three, Two, One. We are the only guys there," said Seven.
Seven gets up and moves away from Koyimira's back, then Koyimira quickly gets up from the ground, pulls out a gun, and with a few buttons, drones come out of his body.
They all point at Seven and are ready to shoot. Seven doesn't move. He puts his hand in his pocket, takes out the cigarette box again, opens it, takes one out, and puts it back.
He puts the cigarette in the mouth of his mask, puts his hand in the other pocket, takes his hand out of the pocket, and takes out a lighter.
He puts the lighter to the tip of the cigarette and lights it, puts the lighter away, and starts smoking again, calmly observing the whole scene.
He puts his hand in the pockets of his suit and takes out a gun. Before Koyimira can react, Seven shoots him in the leg.
"Well, that's how it's going to be. There won't be anything else. I won't kill you. You could be useful to me, but that will be for later. Take care," said Seven, walking away from the scene.
"Damn that guy, I can't move my leg properly. I'll have to crawl carefully," said Koyimira.
Elsewhere in the auction house, someone is running through the corridors. It is Ikuren, who is chasing a man he saw doing something suspicious.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the same place, at the entrance, some mobsters from a family arrive to steal the items since everyone is dead.
They take advantage of the opportunity until they come across someone sitting alone, looking at the corpses of the others.
"What an idiot, staying behind alone to honor his fallen comrades. What kind of idiot does that?" said the mobster, pointing at his head.
"As the saying goes, a dog that doesn't bark doesn't bite. This idiot just went straight to his end, he's just proving himself to be stupid," said his partner.
"You know, seeing the corpses of these people brings back memories of my childhood, although, well, it's not that big of a deal, I'm only 18, I'm still young," said the boy.
"But even so, that doesn't change the fact that they're dead," said the boy.
"What did you say, idiot? Do you want to die?" said the mobster.
"This guy just talks a lot and does little. I say we kill him right now," said his partner.
The two gangsters are about to shoot, but suddenly the boy draws his katana and cuts off both men's arms.
Suddenly, the bodies of the two men are cut into many pieces, leaving them in pieces and their bodies leaving a trail of electricity.
"Let's see who will be next. Will you be able to defeat a member of the Port Mafia?" said the boy.
